If you ask me the same question - my answer is NO simply because I haven't seen one. Seeing is believing is my mantra. Yes I've seen the movie ET and it was fun and sure the alien looked adorable in the movie but it's not enough to convince me that there's life out there. It doesn't mean that humans inhabit the earth that there are others not like us who inhabit the outer space.
I'm glad that the Vatican hired experts (others non-Catholics) to study the possibility of alien life and what it means for the Catholic Church. I understand that this endeavor takes time and needs the help of different experts in the field of astronomy, physics, biology and so much more. Actually, I prefer science and religion rather than politics and religion. What do you think? Most politicians are self-serving anyways.
Most movies about aliens have portrayed them as bad - abducting people left and right. But I was thinking that this is the same with humans too - there are good and bad people. Even humans abduct humans. It will be interesting to know some years from now if we humans are not alone in this world and by then who knows I will change my mind and accept the concept of alien life.
The Vatican Observatory is based in Castel Gandolfo outside Rome. Research is also conducted at an observatory at the University of Arizona, in Tucson.
